In the tumultuous world of piracy, one figure stands out above all others - the Pirate Captain. With his rugged charm and fearsome reputation, he commands respect and strikes fear into the hearts of both friend and foe alike. In 1836, amidst a desperate plea for help, Mrs. Glass and her daughter find themselves imploring the pirates to save their lives. The Pirate Captain's decision hangs in the balance as he weighs his options - will he show mercy or unleash his ruthless nature? Centuries earlier, in 1580, Miguel de Cervantes found himself at the mercy of fate until salvation arrived in an unexpected form. The Fathers of Redemption swoop in to rescue him from certain doom, forever indebted to their heroic act. The waters surrounding Hong Kong become a battleground during a tragic night fight over a British steamer. In this chaotic scene depicted in vivid color lithography, it is up to the Pirate Captain to determine who emerges victorious from this deadly clash. Sir Christopher Myngs emerges as an English naval officer turned privateer in 1814. His exploits are immortalized through engravings that capture his daring spirit and unwavering determination on the high seas. Traveling back further in time to the Ottoman Empire of the 16th century reveals yet another facet of piracy - Turkish pirates donning elaborate costumes that strike fear into their victims' hearts. These engravings from 1859-1860 showcase their menacing presence on both land and sea. However, not all tales end with triumph; sometimes death claims even those who rule over treacherous waters. A hauntingly beautiful color lithograph portrays the final moments of a fallen pirate captain as he succumbs to his inevitable fate. Venturing into new territories brings about fresh challenges for these seafaring criminals. A colorful lithograph depicts German piracy's rise to prominence while showcasing its newfound glories across uncharted waters. Boarding enemy vessels becomes second nature to the Pirate Captain and his crew.
